Background Overweight and obesity are increasing health problems that not restricted to adults only. Childhood is associated with metabolic, psychological musculoskeletal comorbidities. However, knowledge about the effect of on foot function across maturation lacking. Decreased disproportional loading characteristics expected for obese children. The aim this study was examine during gait normal-weight, overweight children aged 1–12 years. Methods A total 10382 one twelve years were enrolled...
Background: Isokinetic measurements are widely used to assess strength capacity in a clinical or research context. Nevertheless, the validity of isokinetic measures for identifying deficits and evaluation therapeutic process regarding
Abstract The study investigated the incidence of Achilles and patellar tendinopathy in adolescent elite athletes non-athletic controls. Furthermore, predictive associated factors for development were analyzed. prospective consisted two measurement days (M1/M2) with an interval 3.2±0.9 years. 157 (12.1±0.7 years) 25 controls (13.3±0.6 without Achilles/patellar included at M1. Clinical ultrasound examinations both (AT) tendons (PT) performed. Main outcome measures structural intratendinous...
In infants and young children, a wide heterogeneity of foot shape is typical. Therefore, who are additionally influenced by rapid growth maturation, very special cohort for measurements the footwear industry. The importance fit, design, as well clinical applications has been sufficiently described. New measurement techniques (3D scanning) allow assessment individual shape. However, validity in comparison to conventional methods remains unclear. purpose this study was compare 3D scanning with...
Back pain patients (BPP) show delayed muscle onset, increased co-contractions, and variability as response to quasi-static sudden trunk loading in comparison healthy controls (H). However, it is unclear whether these results can validly be transferred suddenly applied walking perturbations, an automated but more functional complex movement pattern. There evident need develop research-based strategies for the rehabilitation of back pain. Therefore, investigation differences stability between...
Recently, the incidence rate of back pain (BP) in adolescents has been reported at 21%. However, development BP adolescent athletes is unclear. Hence, purpose this study was to examine young elite relation gender and type sport practiced.Subjective assessed 321 (m/f 57%/43%; 13.2 ± 1.4 years; 163.4 11.4 cm; 52.6 12.6 kg; 5.0 2.6 training yrs; 7.6 5.3 h/week). Initially, all were free pain. The main outcome criterion [%] analyzed terms from first measurement day (M1) second (M2) after 2.0 1.0...

J Strength Cond Res 28(5): 1328–1334, 2014—Differences trunk because of gender sports are well documented adults. In contrast, data concerning sparse. The purpose this study was to assess the maximum adolescent investigate differences between genders age groups. A total 520 were recruited. Finally, 377 (n = 233/144 M/F; 13 ± 1 years; 1.62 0.11 m height; 51 12...
In the context of back pain, great emphasis has been placed on importance trunk stability, especially in situations requiring compensation repetitive, intense loading induced during high-performance activities, e.g. jumping or landing. This study aims to evaluate muscle activity drop jump adolescent athletes with pain (BP) compared without (NBP). Eleven suffering (BP: m/f: n=4/7; 15.9±1.3y; 176±11cm; 68±11kg; 12.4±10.5h/we training) and 11 matched (NBP: 15.5±1.3y; 174±7cm; 67±8kg;...
Active high-lift systems of future civil aircraft allow noise reduction and the use shorter runways. Powering electrically have a strong impact on design requirements for electrical power supply aircraft. The active system reference considered in this paper consists flexible leading-edge device together with combination boundary-layer suction Coanda-jet blowing. Electrically driven compressors distributed along wings provide required mass flow pressurized air. Their additional loads...
(Abstracted from Lancet 2021;397:1183–1194) Preterm birth is the most common cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality. When infants are born preterm, they at increased risk for having difficulties birth, health problems throughout infancy, death during first year life.
Intervention in the form of core-specific stability exercises is evident to improve trunk stability. The purpose was assess effect an additional 6 weeks sensorimotor or resistance training on maximum isokinetic strength and response sudden dynamic loading (STL) highly trained adolescent athletes. study conducted as a single-blind, 3-armed randomized controlled trial. Twenty-four athletes (14f/10 m, 16 ± 1 yrs.;178 10 cm; 67 11 kg; sessions/week 15 5; h/week 22 8) were into (RT; n = 7), (SMT;...
Abstract The aim was to use a short biomechanical test battery screen adolescent athletes with and without back pain reveal relevant possibly preventable deficits. 1 559 (m/f 945/614; 13.2±1.6y) were included. Back assessed (1–5: 1=no pain; 5=maximum pain) for dichotomous categorization into (BP: pain>2, n=113), healthy (NBPAll: pain=1, n=1 213) matched (NBPmatched: n=113) athletes. Athletes performed stability, performance (jumps) trunk strength testing. center of pressure displacement...
Abstract Background Improving movement control might be a promising treatment goal during chronic non-specific low back pain (CLBP) rehabilitation. The objective of the study is to evaluate effect single bout game-based real-time feedback intervention on trunk in patients with CLBP. Methods Thirteen CLBP (8female;41 ± 16 years;173 10 cm;78 22 kg) were included this randomized cross-over pilot trial. During one laboratory session (2 h), participants performed three identical measurements all...
Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the effect a 6-week sensorimotor or resistance training on maximum trunk strength and response sudden, high-intensity loading in athletes. Forty-three healthy, well-trained participants were randomized into (SMT; n=11), (RT; n=16) control groups (CG; n=16). Treatment received either (SMT) (RT) for 6 weeks, 3 times week. At baseline after weeks intervention, participants' isokinetic rotation extension tested (concentric/eccentric 30°/s). In...
To evaluate trunk peak torque and muscle activation pattern during isokinetic sudden loading (STL) between adolescent athletes with/without back pain.Nine with pain (BP) (m/f 2/7; 15.6 ± 1.2 y; 177 9 cm; 67 13 kg; 22.5 9.8 h/week) nine matched controls 15.7 1.4 12 65 16.5 8.0 h/week training) were included. Trunk strength in rotation flexion/extension was assessed. Sudden measured eccentric extension (30∘/s) additional perturbation. activity using a lead-EMG (electromyography). Main outcome...
Cosmological probes pose an inverse problem where the measurement result is obtained through observations, and objective to infer values of model parameters which characterize underlying physical system -- our Universe. Modern cosmological increasingly rely on measurements small-scale structure, only way accurately behavior those scales, roughly 65 Mpc/h or smaller, via expensive numerical simulations. In this paper, we provide a detailed description novel statistical framework for obtaining...
